Hi guys, I searched and i found mr mushrooms awesome link with the sound bites of mushroom names. but that list is not that big and theres many i am interested in how to say. and im sure other people have similiar questions about species they collect. so maybe we can make this a thread for everyone to give some insight into mycological pronunciations. i realize were not going for perfect greek or latin here . but how do the mycologists say it. its about communication not strict latin law here. i know alot of names ive really only said in my head and not even spoke them !! haha so if i am going to say them i want to say them somewhat propper.
heres a few off the top of my head that i know im not saying right.
oregonensis Pleorotus pulmanarius zelleri Plectania nannfeldtii Kueneromyces lignicola myriadophylla

Not really, that's English pronunciation. Unfortunately I don't know how to write English pronunciation of those names, and I'm probably pronouncing quite a few wrong myself, it's been almost 10 years since I've learned Latin.

This is how I would pronounce them... not that I say them properly
- oregon-en-sis (just like it's written)
- ploo-row-tuss pul(likea boat hull)-mon(jamaican man)-are-ee-us
- zell-err-eye
- Plec-tan-ee-ah nan-feld-ee-eye
- Kuehner(a surname-I think its pronounced Keener)-oh-my-sees lig-nee-cola
- Myriad-oh-file-ah

I'm trying to find a good pronunciation guide on the web, but there's really nothing that would explain it simply and thoroughly, with audio examples. I know that it's very difficult for native English speakers to understand, but Latin is mostly pronounced as it's written, with some rules that differ from that. Mostly tough, one letter = one sound. It is very different from English in that respect. I remember seeing one growing video, and seriously, the way the guy pronounced 'Psilocybe' made me cringe. It was something like Silo-see-bee, and proper (at least more correct) Latin of that word sounds exactly like it's written letter for sound.

A great thread would be an easy guide to pronouncing latin. It would give simplified latin rules as well as a list of how to pronounce the popular genre of mushrooms and popular active species. Ill look into it.

As a non-native English speaker, it really bugs me how English speakers habitually mangle Latin names. There should not be an "eye" in "Galerina" or a "sigh" in "Psilocybe" Latin was meant to be an international standard...

I want to add the pronunciations into my PNW Guide. I was hoping some who knows about these names could help me out, I know were not going to get a formal latin pronunciation, but if we can get pretty close that would be ideal! PM me if you want to help!
